Zoetis (ZTS) Stock Analysis & Forecast
$71.40−1.62 (−2.2%)
Close on Sep 18, 2026. Page updated Sep 19, 9:16 pm ET.
Gekko Brief
AI summaryZoetis closes at $71.40, down 2.2% on the day, and sits below both its 50-day average of $75.31 and its 200-day average of $100.79, with the 50-day also below the 200-day. The GekkoIndex reads 69.7, placing the stock in the Accumulation zone. Price stands 38.3% below Gekko Fair Value of $115.77.
Coverage this week centers on Zoetis holding to its previously issued guidance even as weaker pet-care demand and heightened competition in dermatology and parasiticides pressure U.S. companion-animal sales. Commentary tied to the August 6 quarter notes flat revenues and declining U.S. sales alongside resilience in international and livestock segments, while executives point to gross-to-net promotions and product differentiation around Apoquel, Trio, and Cytopoint. Separate coverage flags a reduced stake by Corient Private Wealth LP, a holder with $35.07 million in Zoetis shares.
The next earnings date falls on 3 November 2026, 44 days out and beyond a typical 20-trading-day window; the prior report on 6 August produced a -2.3% reaction despite an EPS beat, part of a run of 7 beats in the last 8 quarters, with an average absolute reaction of 8%. Over the last 90 days, Congress activity shows 1 buy and 0 sells. Seasonality over the next 20 trading days has averaged -1.8% across 5 years, rising in only 1 of them. Analyst coverage spans 11 firms, 5 rating it buy and 6 hold, with a consensus target of $96.

Last earnings call, Aug 6, 2026 AI summary
- What they said
- Zoetis Q2 2026 earnings call covered macro headwinds in Companion Animal market, competitive intensity and targeted pricing actions, financial results, cost control measures, and livestock strength. Management emphasized gross-to-net promotions to protect volume and share, defended product differentiation (Apoquel, Trio, Cytopoint), and highlighted continued R&D investment. CFO Wetteny Joseph detailed results: Q2 revenue $2.5B (flat reported, -1% organic), adjusted net income $781M (-2% organic), Companion Animal revenue $1.7B (-6%), Dermatology $395M (-16%), OA pain mAbs $147M (-3%). Management revised full-year guidance reflecting persistent competitive/promotional activity and FX headwinds (~$60-65M top-line, ~$30M bottom-line). Livestock performed strongly (global +11%, U.S. +23%), with normalized growth expected mid- to high-single digits. Management signaled ongoing cost actions (SG&A -4% YoY) and gross margin protection but expects pricing/headwinds to pressure near-term results; they remain confident long-term.
- Guidance
- Revised 2026 guidance: revenue guide range implies price realization of roughly 0% to -1% on the mid-to-high end and potentially -2% toward the low end; FX headwind of ~$60-65M top-line (~$30M bottom-line). No 2027 guidance provided.
- Risks flagged
- Headwinds include: declining veterinary clinic visits and pet owner affordability pressures; increased competitive intensity with discounting and promotional tactics; potential continued market contraction in Dermatology and parasiticides; FX translation headwinds (~$60-65M top-line).
